Chorus: Rema
I know I am a mess, a little drug-obsessed
Go and find you someone else, I’m tryna be thе best
‘Cause, baby, you desеrve it
If I don’t spend the rest of my life with you, oh
I know I am a mess (Oh), a little drug-obsessed (Oh)
Go and find you someone else, I’m tryna be the best (Oh, oh, oh)
‘Cause, baby, you deserve it (Deserve)
If I don’t spend the rest of my life with you, oh
Verse 1: Tiakola
Tu connais, moi, j’suis busy, tout près ou loin d’ici
Même quand les démons m’rendent visite, moi j’pense à ton physique
N’oublie pas que mon cœur résonne mais j’crois que tu m’entends pas
Mon train de vie est rapide mais j’espère que tu l’attends, babé
Pourquoi, tester ? se detester…, ralenti, OG garanti, dégaine d’un affranchi, t’inquiète je t’ai pas menti
Laisse-moi être un homme meilleur
Pour toi je veux être le best, c’est pour ça que j’insiste
Mais nos anges font la sieste, viens on s’aime, on se déteste
On te demande juste de rester, moi j’te demande juste de rest
Laisse-moi être un homme meilleur
Pre-Chorus: Rema
You go say I dey whine you when I dey call you, “My baby” (Whine you, my baby)
You go say I dey help when I say, “No girl be your mate” (Girl be your mate, oh)
You be one-of-one, oh, how I go use you dey play (Dey play, dey play)
If e dey possible, I fit marry you today, oh
Girl, I go marry you today (Marry you today, you)
See the way you dey whine, oh, girl, I dey padi your low waist
Make I put one in, make my G dey call you, “Maye”
Who go top you pass me? Girl, I’m up for the challenge
Verse 2: Tiakola & Rema
Tu me cherches mais je m’amuse à zoner
J’peux la jouer sans toi, une autre va te remplacer la journée
C’que tu veux, j’l’ai déjà donné
Y’a trop de…. (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
You are all I need (Uh-huh), I don’t make enemies (Ọlọhun)
I see this jealousies, …. (Uh, uh)
Brace the storm, girl, you badder
I’ll never turn my back, keep it real with you like that
Girl, girl, what’s on your back
Elle est bonne, elle est déjà sur moi (elle est déjà sur moi)
Y a beaucoup de haine sur moi (beaucoup de haine sur moi)
Ennemie et jalousie sur moi (jalousie sur moi)
Les yeux posés sur my mind
Baby girl toujours on my mind
Baby girl toujours on my mind, on my mind, on my mind, mind, mind
On my mind, on my mind
On my mind, mind, mind
Chorus: Rema & Tiakola
I know I am a mess, a little drug-obsessed
Go and find you someone else, I’m tryna be the best
‘Cause, baby, you deserve it (Baby, you deserve it)
If I don’t spend the rest of my life with you, oh
Pour toi je veux être le best, c’est pour ça que j’insiste
Mais nos anges font la sieste, viens on s’aime, on se déteste
On te demande juste de rester, moi j’te demande juste de rest
Laisse-moi être un homme meilleur
